Formscan - LOCH CUAN has improved with each career start and got off the mark over C&D last month. The five-year-old appears to have an excellent opportunity to follow up, with a 7lb penalty unlikely to pose any concerns. Tribal Moon wasn't disgraced when finishing seventh in a Downpatrick maiden hurdle just 12 days ago and he is likely to be competitive, while Drumconnor Hill appeals most of the remainder.
